Re-opening waterway for commercial use

Provide complete logistics from worldwide locations to southern Iraq on behalf of Trans Global Projects’ client, a supermajor oil company. Cargo includes pipe racks, pre-assembled modules and piping totalling 275,000 freight tonnes to support the major upgrading of an existing giant oil field.

Activity

More than 1,700 containers were transported by air and sea to the destination country before completing their journey with a 300km road trip to the oil field. For reasons of security, safety and cost efficiency, 24 barge loads were also delivered to site using the Shatt Al Arab waterway in what was its first commercial use for more than 30 years.

There were zero lost time incidents during the movement of more than 300 road convoys.
